[Intro] Ooh… spice in the air… eight legs on the stair… Go away....go away......nooooooooo [Verse 1] I made a pot of chilli, nice and slow, Beans doing backflips, let it simmer, let it glow, Then I saw a little shadow doing cardio on the wall— A spider in my kitchen like it pays the rent and all. [Pre-Chorus] I said, “Hey buddy, please don’t scare my soul,” He said nothing… but he stared like a pro. [Chorus] Chilli and spiders, chillin’ together, One burns my tongue, one floats like a feather, I’m tryin’ to be brave, I’m tryin’ to be cool, But my knees do a samba when he walks past my stool. Chilli and spiders—what a vibe, what a night, Spice in the bowl, eight legs in the light. [Verse 2] I add a little paprika, little cumin, little heat, He climbs the pepper shaker like it’s some deluxe suite, I’m stirring like a wizard, pretending I’m okay, While he’s judging my seasoning in a very spider way. [Pre-Chorus] I’m like, “Bro, you want a bowl? You want a seat?” He’s like… silence… “I only eat elite.” [Chorus] Chilli and spiders, chillin’ together, One burns my tongue, one floats like a feather, I’m tryin’ to be brave, I’m tryin’ to be cool, But my knees do a samba when he walks past my stool. Chilli and spiders—what a vibe, what a night, Spice in the bowl, eight legs in the light. [Bridge] (half-time, funny whisper) Okay, new deal: You catch the flies… I’ll stop screaming… When you appear outta nowhere. [Verse 3] I take one bite—WHOOSH—my face turns red, He drops from the ceiling and I leave my body instead, But then we both pause like, “This is kind of dumb,” Me with the chilli sweats, him with the spider thumb. (…wait) [Final Chorus] Chilli and spiders, chillin’ together, One is a furnace, one is light as a feather, I’m learnin’ to relax, I’m learnin’ to cope, He’s the tiny eight-legged landlord of my hope. Chilli and spiders—yeah, we’re doin’ alright, Spice in the bowl, eight legs in the light. [Outro] Ooh… stir it slow… let it glow… (Spider tip-toe) …okay, that’s enough glow.
